Heron Trail: juvenile Coal Tit (reasonably scarce on the reserve) trapped and ringed in the sanctuary area this morning. Still 3 Nightingales singing around the trail.

Island Pit: Cetti's Warbler singing still on west side of pit, plus Cuckoo singing along river adjacent to Island Pit. 2 Hobbies in a brief grapple at height over the pit this afternoon, before one bird flew off north with the other heading off in the opposite direction.
